The Fighting Nation has recently shined in space-themed films, and even the mainland theaters have introduced several Russian space blockbusters, which shows that the strength of Russian blockbusters is extraordinary. Compared to space themes, Fat Brother's favorite is Russian World War II movies. This is a glorious tradition that Russia has continued since the Soviet era. Russian directors are handy when shooting World War II films. A large number of themes, epic stories, and heroes are their inexhaustible source of material.
Speaking of World War II, apart from the defense of Moscow and the Blitz, the most proud of the Russians is the "tank war." During World War II, the Soviet Union and Germany put in tens of thousands of tanks to charge and fight each other. The two sides continued to improve their tank equipment through battlefield conditions, relying on technical competition and production speed, which played a decisive role in the turning point and outcome of the battle. German Tiger heavy tanks and Leopard medium tanks are well-known, but once the Soviet T-34 medium tank is mentioned , all military fans will secretly claim to be surprised.
Although the T-34 has suffered a lot of criticism, it is undeniable that as the "victory tank" of the Soviet Union, it is indeed the "good" tank of World War II. In particular, the Type 85 improved in 1943 achieved the best balance of protection, mobility and productivity. Its design idea with inclined armor has a profound and revolutionary influence on the development of later tanks. Recently, a World War II tank movie with the T-34 tank at the core of the story surprises- "T-34 Tank"!
The title is simple and straightforward, and the Russian tank movie once again made movie fans excited. What needs to be "vaccinated" is that "T-34 Tank" is not as sophisticated as "28 Warriors". The a bit exaggerated and "mythical" plot gives "T-34 Tank" a strong theatrical presentation and romantic writing. . Some fans even ridiculed it for its "anti-war drama" color. Indeed, many scenes are indeed suspected of praising T-34 tanks and Soviet tank crews to the sky, but this does not affect the look and feel of the film. The rhythm is suitable, the characters are bloody, the third stage plot is solid and powerful, and the tank battle scenes are even more vivid. Bursting. Speaking of "dramatic", in fact, the Hollywood tank blockbuster, "Fury" starring Brad Pitt, also appeared in the third act climax of the romantic myth of "one man is the key". The same flaws do not conceal the advantages, you can still get the view in the film. Enjoy the thrill of the movie and feel the armor charm brought by tank battles.
From the resistance in 1941 to the breakout in 1945, "T-34 Tank" used clear three scenes to make a full article around the tank. In 1941, the German blitzkrieg raided the Soviet Union. Located in a small town more than 30 kilometers away from Moscow, the ensign and tank commander Iushkin broke through the German siege and sent ammunition to the small town. The local commander received an order to "fight to the last person" and was not allowed to retreat. German colonel and tank commander Jaeger led a tank unit to encircle and suppress the small Soviet army and march into Moscow. The strength of the two sides is very different. Ushkin has only one T-34/75 tank in his hand. Although this was the best tank of the Soviet and German sides at the time, it was outnumbered and suffered heavy casualties. Ivushkin chose to avoid its edge. , To fight an ambush, use the "empty city plan".
The start of the film was the "Changbanpo" battle. Ivushkin led a small team to fight guerrilla warfare, and took advantage of the terrain to tie the entire company with Yeager with a tank. The entire first act of the battle lasted for nearly 30 minutes, from ambushing to counterattack, to fire and breaking through, all in one go, without any muddling.
Jaeger and Iushkin quickly established a complicated relationship that was "difficult to distinguish between the two" and "whether a child is born or born." The construction of two "absolute spirits" and the "initial opposition" duo model are the highlights of the plot advancement and character creation of "T-34 Tank". But when two people meet, one of them wants the other to die, and vice versa. But this is not out of resentment and has nothing to do with feelings. It is just a logical problem: two "absolute spirits" cannot coexist, and at the same time they need each other to be recognized. Desperate struggle arises from this. As a World War II movie, "T-34 Tank" is the easiest genre to show human conflict. The most evil enemy always forms a pair of "similar brothers" with his opponent.
At the end of the first act, the two sides drew a tie, ending the first fight between the two sides with a shot in the back of Jaeger. A few years passed. In 1944, World War II was drawing to a close, and the situation on both sides changed drastically. The Soviet Union fought back against Germany, and Germany was completely passive. Ivushkin was sent to a concentration camp, and was captured on 7 escapes during the period because he lost his combat weapon, a Soviet tank. Jaeger was ordered to train a new tank unit to face the T-34/85 tank, the main force of the Soviet tank army.
When selecting Soviet tank commanders in the concentration camp, he knew Iushkin at a glance. The two absolute spirits meet again, this time they must be "death and alive". Jaeger brought a T-34/85 tank with a damaged front line and let Ivushkin repair it in the concentration camp, and then used it to train German Panther tank personnel.
When the newly repaired T-34 tank appeared in front of the German officers with the soundtrack of Swan Lake, the plot could not wait to rebound from the "bottom" to the "up" road. After a "prison situation", Ivushkin concealed ammunition and tried his best. He and several other tankers specified a detailed and bold plan. On the first training day, he drove a T-34 to escape 300 kilometers away. Czechoslovakia captured by the Soviet Union. The third act, from a breakout to one-to-many in a small town, staged a wonderful Soviet T-34 vs. German Leopard style.
Armor-piercing projectiles hit the ground and bounced into the enemy’s cabin. The tanks pushed forward through the wall and broke through the wall. The classical duel on the bridge.
These cinematic imaginative presentations are indeed against common sense, but they really make the audience enjoyable. "T-34 Tank" uses various "fancy" gameplays to maximize the drama of tank battles, and conquered movie fans with unconstrained imagination.
But the most resonant thing in the whole film is the "absolute spirit" contest between the two protagonists . At the end of the film, Ivushkin crawled out of the cabin, and he took out the weapon first. Unlike a few years ago, the situation between the two was just changed.
But Iushkin hesitated a little, instead of shooting, he shook hands with the sympathetic Jaeger.
Jaeger laughed loudly, let go of the opponent's hand, and crashed down the bridge with the Leopard tank. What a strange friendship. First, there was a desperate struggle, greetings with artillery fire, and now they shook hands and made peace. This is the contradictory relationship between absolute spirits . If there is no other party, we will not be recognized. The only person who can understand me, I must fight him desperately, I must kill the only person who can make my life possible.
In the dying time, the two absolute spirits, the super soldiers shook hands and made peace, and soon the hero will fall into loneliness again. Two absolutely spiritual people are absolutely lonely. Therefore, at the end of the story, you do not kiss, but you can shake hands.
